Historical Museum: Mrs. Pat Keeling, Mrs. Jean Petroff, and Mrs. Germaine Moon
Their collection of desert related material cannot be matched elsewhere and
deserves more attention in future studies. Mrs. Gertrude Alf of the Daggett
Historical Society and Mrs. Nancy Robison of the Western Hotel Historical
Society also graciously supplied useful material. Mr. Ted Bear, Historian
at Edwards Air Force Base opened his files to us and Sgt. John Cooley,
Historian, George Air Force Base advised on historical matters at his base.
Gratitude is also due to others in public office such as Mrs. Bobby L. Gaines,
U. S. Dept. of Agriculture, Mr. Don V. Tucker, Regional Parks, Department,
San Bernardino, and Mr. Jenkins, Mojave State Fishery. Dr. Paul Black,
railroad historian pointed to the literature on that subject, and Mr. Robert
Chandler, Wells Fargo Research Specialist devoted time to our study. Many
other people were interviewed and to all we owe thanks, including Mr. Pat
Mitchell, President of the High Desert Cattlemen's Association and Mrs. Dorene
Burton Settle.
ERA would like to express its special appreciation to this project's
consultants (not mentioned above) Dr. Berger and Prof. Fenenga. Mr. Jerry
Howard served as Research Assistant for Archaeology, Ms. Ellen McCann,
Ms. Loraine Heller, Ms. Susie Piper, and Mrs. Karen Stickel all helped in
report production activities.
